It is a scam.
FTC – How To Avoid, Spot, and Report Tech Support Scams
"Real security warnings and messages will never ask you to call a phone number."
If you have any doubts as to whether Apple wants to speak with you, look up Apple's official contact information – for yourself – on their Web site. Then contact them. Never trust a phone number or a link that you receive in some "security warning" that pops up out of the blue. Any scammer can put together a pack of lies claiming that they are from "Apple Security" or "Apple Support" or some such, and giving you a number to connect you to their call center for a fleecing.
Just got a text from a stating your apple storage upgraded and an amount of 459.89 will be debited from apple pay. if not reach apple care at ... I think this is a scam.

Hello~ Exactly!! I view everything as a scam until I can prove otherwise…sad but true. There is money to be made by these criminals and they will get only better at this. Take care.
